Talk:TekSavvy

Article rationale
This article is meant to improve the coverage of Canada on Wikipedia, providing information on telecommunications companies beyond the primary players in the industry. It provides context for the article "Internet in Canada", which references TekSavvy multiple times. It also highlights the ongoing usage-based billing debate, a major issue in Canada that extends beyond the tech industry. It has become a political issue that has been addressed by Canada's federal government, its prime minister Stephen Harper, its (then) Minister of Industry Tony Clement, and its ongoing political and sociological relationship with the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC), Canada's regulatory agency for broadcasting and telecommunications.

Tier Chart
When I originally created this article, I drew up a tier chart, showing TekSavvy's various DSL and Cable plans along with their respective speeds and bandwidth allotments, to showcase how their caps vary from other service providers in Canada. The article for Bell Internet has a similar chart, so it felt like it created a good comparison. However, the chart was removed early on. I am proposing the chart be re-added, or at least seek justification for why it doesn't belong.
